The 'copyin/copyout' nomenclature needlessly departs from what the modern FPU code uses, which is: copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() copy_fregs_to_user() copy_fxregs_to_kernel() copy_fxregs_to_user() copy_kernel_to_fpregs() copy_kernel_to_fregs() copy_kernel_to_fxregs() copy_kernel_to_xregs() copy_user_to_fregs() copy_user_to_fxregs() copy_user_to_xregs() copy_xregs_to_kernel() copy_xregs_to_user() I.e. according to this pattern, the following rename should be done: copyin_to_xsaves() -> copy_user_to_xstate() copyout_from_xsaves() -> copy_xstate_to_user() or, if we want to be pedantic, denote that that the user-space format is ptrace: copyin_to_xsaves() -> copy_user_ptrace_to_xstate() copyout_from_xsaves() -> copy_xstate_to_user_ptrace() But I'd suggest the shorter, non-pedantic name.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
